This new knowledge could ultimately lead to interventions in age-related cognitive declines, drug abuse, stroke, and brain injury, separate from or in combination with traditional pharmacological approaches. These findings were presented at Neuroscience 2010, the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience and the world's largest source of emerging news on brain science and health.

"Under a new system, the VA has given each hospital a 'surgical complexity' level.

The VA will pick up the tab for patients who have surgeries performed elsewhere" (Hefling, 5/6).
